Happy Harriet and Loropetalum...

Coincidently I've just fleeced mine today, as we had a frost 2 nights ago, but no harm done, also my variegated Abutilon and Billarderia.

Is that 'Purple Pixie'? Nice little plant. They wouldn't survive in my garden - - winters are too brutal.

Nor mine...have tried.

Happy Harriet, lol! Well named...

I wouldn't like to see her when she's sad!

Ha ha Thorney too right! Stera we think she is holding a dead/poorly lamb! hence the expression....Bathgate what a lovely name, not heard it called that before....
Siris we haven't fleeced anything yet, we are cutting it fine, I think!
Meadow so wort it, , there are other varieties, just as lovely, we lost two, but to be fair they were rubbish plants, would wait for the Spring now before we buy another one....
HB I love the colour and with the flowers it's outstanding....

Lovely coloured leaves DD. How sad is the little story behind Harriet. Perhaps a bit of tinsel would cheer her up.

Dotty: My friend, Jim, knows a lot about this plant. If you want to see his video, here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4B5WgE_ZYc&t=33s

Lindak I will see she has some...
I will take a look Bathgate....
